Redtail Rise metamorph

Shout out to @Augur!

Confidence. Drive. Desire. Dominance. Many of the qualities which fueled Relic's motives now. He was a man on a mission. Out to prove himself. Not only in the eyes of the Rise, but especially in @Lilia's. She wanted the best. He wanted to give that to her. To be that for her. So that no other could topple him from his position at her side. How fitting it would be, if he, the first born son of the Rise, took her favor.

He latched onto his goal and held fast. Besting Ancelin in combat had not been enough. Not for him. Nor the scars they both wore. Or that he and Lilia shared a den together. He would push and push until she made her choice. He would do whatever it takes. And that meant getting creative. Thinking outside the box. 

He turned now to a new, alternate source. A highly respected one, perhaps not immediately one that would come to mind. He tracked down Augur's scent trail and followed it until he was close. When he was sure he was within range, he called out. Not a challenge. Just a request with an audience with his experienced superior.
